Ordering plug-ins (no type detection)

Although DataTables will order a number of data types using the built in methods, when dealing with more complex formatted data, it can be desirable to
define the ordering order yourself. Using plug-in ordering functions, you can have DataTables order data in any manner you wish.

This is done by using the columns.type parameter, in combination with a ordering plug-in. The ordering plug-in can be of any level of
complexity (natural ordering for example can be fairly complex while also very powerful), and is defined by attaching to the
$.fn.dataTable.ext.type.order object. For more information about ordering plug-ins, creating them and their requirements, please refer to the
plug-in development documentation.
